Olympic Skier Eyes New Mountain
Gold-medal winner Johnny Moseley wraps up a two-week AMEX training internship with the Kellogg Group

By: Rich Blake
Issue: July 2005

At age 29, Johnny Moseley, who took home a skiiing gold medal at the 1998 Winter Olympics, is seeking a new mountain to conquer -- Wall Street. He’s now wrapping up a two-week-long stint at a Kellogg Group specialists' trading firm working on the floor of the AMEX.

"I’m done with skiing," Moseley says. "Just not curious about it anymore. Wall Street is fascinating, I can see a career, maybe trading. You definitely get the bug being down on the floor." Yes, it’s summer at the AMEX but Moseley took advantage of the pace and the attention he was getting and says he’ll always value the learning experience. Kellogg founder Kirk Kellogg met Moseley while on a skiing vacation earlier this year and arranged for the internship.

"He’s a smart guy who is getting a great macro view," Kellogg says. "He’ll go places." Moseley says he’s studied options and ETF trading, which will help in whatever path he chooses. Ringing the opening bell Thursday morning, the Olympian from Marin County, California, was all smiles as he yelled out to the floor, "Thanks for showing me a lot of love." Of course the former host of MTV’s Real World/Road Rules Challenge had his balls busted, too. "Some guys gave me shit about my hair," the spiky coiffed mogul master remarked. "But that’s all part of the experience."

Honestly, skiing shunned him. Do you know how much ass he would have to kiss to get some respect in this sport? Dude's gonna make a shit-ton of money now. I'm thinking that will ease the pain of being shut out by skiing. Not everyone is a "core" skier. And he is one of those people. Oh well. Maybe now that he's not a skier people will just move on. Probably not though.

did you use your basketball fame to boost you to a corporate money-making career and leave the sport that made you famous in the dust?

or use your hip cool basketball image to get you a job on the bigggest poser network on tv, and stil claim to represent the core cool basketball culture?

see the tv show example makes sense. but he didnt leave skiing in the dust to trade stocks. when was the last tie he did anythign skiing. and being a proskier isnt going to get you a job on wallstreet. thats how he met the guy.

black people get as close to rap as they can when they get famous. white people get as far away as they can. how do i know this? well i just moved to a town in indiana where the houses are huge and i saw ron artest at wendys handing out copies of his rap album while a few polo and loafer wearing white executives gave him the dirtiest looks ever.

it would be funny if it wasnt true

i wouldn't - he stole my sharpy at the Ski Movie show in Boulder a few years ago. Missed out on lost of autographs due to it.

He was a interested drunk. he was outside filming girls and touching them.

Then, Arron McGovern got throw into my friend after getting kicked out of the Boulder threater after getting in a fight with Morrison. He had morrison shirt in his hands.

It was a good night.

Anyway, I could give a flying fuck about what Mosley does. He doesn't want to ski?? Great. whatever, it in no way affects me.

So since I ski now, and someday I'll get a real job. I am a sellout aswell? I don't see the logic. The mother fucker get a gold in the olympics, he's 29 years old. What the hell do you want him to do? He can't ski like he could anymore, his body probably can' t take the abuse. So what should he do now? Make money? why not. when you accomplish as much as he did in the skiing industry feel free to talk shit, untill then, hush.

"when you accomplish as much as he did in the skiing industry feel free to talk shit, untill then, hush."

That statement and others like it completely erase any point the poster may have had earlier in his/her post. "You do it, then you can talk" is about the most annoying and nonsensical argument I've ever read. People really need to stop doing that.

I personally don't care WHAT J-mo wants to do with himself.

It had to be said.

What the fuck is wrong with selling out? Everyone needs money. Some people just have better, or easier, ways of getting it. It's my dream to be able to sell out. Think about it. If you can turn 15 minutes of fame into a lifetime of financial stability, that's an accomplishment. As a skier, I think what he said about skiing was bad, but it's his life. Half the kids on NS would do the same if it meant they would be rich. Screw you guys. Being a sell out would rule.

Also, let's not forget what Johnny Mosely did for new school skiing. The '98 olympics came around right at the beginning of the new school movement. Salomon had come out with the first 1080s in '97, the same year JF won the X-Games with his switch 720. It was very possible, however, that new school skiing would flame out (e.g. skiboarding.) Mosely brought new school, infantile as it was, to the public. So he was never that talented of a jibber. So he couldn't repeat in the '02 olympics. Big deal. He opened the door to new school for the whole country. Without him, today's terrain parks could very well be dominated by boarders.

if he was still in the industry people would be bitching that he's just hanging on and not "progressing" (yuck i hate that word). basically he'll never please any of you no matter what he does, so he may as well make money. nobody seems to bitch at reedy for following the money....

for once i agree.

this is bull shit the way you guys hate on mosley. first off, what he did for skiing was a GOOD thing. also, he is a really sick skier big mountain and bumps, and jumps and what ever. the dude will ski circles around a lot of people. also he is a fuckin cool dude, and is in no way big headed. he is super gratefull, and understands his role as who he is.

and the reason that he is doin this shit is cause he is in business school at berkley, trying to make more of himself than that skier who did the grab in that bump run a few years back. he is getting a real life. you can't be a pro skier your whole life. that is why it is good to go to university.

you know wuts funny, is that majority of people say that he should die and all that shit dont(didnt) think hes a sell out. or care enough to get pissed about it, but you know everyone else on ns hates him so i will too ! fuck you mosely............ wait WHO GIVES A FUCK, would you want to make more money if you could, i gaurentee he wont quit skiing, maybe competivly(sp) but not skiing in general. and would any of you fuckers turn down a fuckin chance to have your own tv show, i think not. so how about all you that hate him shut the fuck up, because your no different from him, besides the fact that he could kick your ass in skiing. following wut everyone else does, does nothing but make you look like a fag, think realisticly

Offtrail (Justin) is right in this respect

Moseley is OLD in regards to being a professional athlete. Good for him for going out and getting a genuine career. Nobody is a sellout for going and doing new things. Sure his stint on MTV was a little odd, but Moseley gave skiing a following during the days when newschool skiing was about as popular aids is (wow..that comment was horrible haha). So he's going to be something besides skiing, big deal. When any professional athlete retires, he has to have a fallback job, and since skiers dont get anywhere NEAR the money of all other professional athletes, they should have a plan on what their going to once they get to a point where they cant perform as well (not saying Moseley is washed up, I have no clue on that)

Its an ODD press release though, ill give it that.

Mosely is awesome. Like everyones said...he already won gold in the olympics. Where else do you want him to go? I mean if you have a gold medal around your neck I think you should be able to do a different job if you want. Hes doing what he wants. Thats why you ski isnt it?

No seriously, give me a reason selling out is a bad thing, and don't give me that halt of progression bullshit. There's plenty of progression out there. Mosely's been apart from that for a while.

Yeah dudes, give poor johny a break. I can assure you that when i'm 29 years old i will not be as much of a "core" skier as I am now. I'll still be skiing trust me, but I definitely won't be doing all of the shit i do now. Johny is smart enough to realize that he can't make a great life for himself skiing. Not to mention that he won't be able to ski at a competitive level much longer. (when you're 30 your body doesn't quite heal like it does when you were 20 either). And I don't think his statements are to "leave skiing in the dust", I think Johny just wants the whole world to take him seriously when he says he's turning over a new leaf on wallstreet. If i were him, I'd be using my fame too. Some of you act like he should crawl under a rock for 10 years until everyone forgets about him and then start all over.

It's not like he quit skiing so he could just get a job and make money and ski some more. He is done with skiing. he's not gonna ski anymore. He isn't interested in it. He isn't interested in what helped him become famous and such a jack ass. moseley sucks balls.

i cant take him[liam downey] seriously cuz his name reminds me of that downy bear from back when i was a kid -d loc

I don't deny there are bad things in the US right now, hell, 51% of the country to be exact. But god damnit, our country being fat is NOT a problem. I do't give a shit how fat people are. hell, fat kids are harder to kidnap, that means our country is safer.

T hall is a highschool droppout, who is going to be shit outta luck when he is 35 years old. He'll have nothing in his name other than he WAS a very good pro freeskier. Tanner will be forced to use his name and past to his advantage. When he is too old to ski, the only thing i see in his future is opening up a skishop or something of the sort.

i dont get it

do you guys honestly expect people to ski forever?

mosely is a sick skier but hes never gonna be huge again. so if someone was offering you a great job would you not take it at age 29?

i think it was a smart move.

and by done with skiing we probably ment professionaly, not im never going to put skis on again

I was personally "done with skiing" three years when i stopped competing

last year the BEST season i have ver enjoyed...paid for a pass, hAD to ski weekends..pow dAYS MID WEEK OF COURSE ... but the fact that i did not have to worry about injury or money for food was awsome....

being "done skiing" ment for me going from 140 days a year to 60...

so its all relative...but atleast now i am not forced to enter crappy comps with shitty judges or icy conditions...those days i am home chilling in the hot tub staring at the lake
